My point is though the average CBM is obviously male skewed. We want it to get to the point where a female lead doesn't change the skew one way or another.
Although in fairness we want a big male share in a movie like this. Young boys need to be able to look up to strong women as role models as Emma Watson so often says.
See this is why we need perspective on looking at a gross number or even a budget estimate. You are never getting 100% accuracy and a decent portion of the time it's significantly off.
Show me where I said you or anyone was dumb. I may have said I thought an idea was dumb but to say I called everyone that is such a hilarious stretch it's pretty absurd but whatever floats your boat.
It's about perspective, clearly there are different opinions that can come from the same numbers and I'll leave it at that. I honestly don't really care about how profitable it is, I'm more interested in how films do vs industry (and to a much lessor extent) fans/analyst expectations.
